Insight
Insight
Stephane Gaudreault told us that version 2.0.6a of gftp displays the password in plain text on the screen within the log window when it is logging into an ftp server. A malicious colleague who is watching the screen could gain access to the users shell on the remote machine. This problem has been fixed by the Security Team in version 2.0.6a-3.2 for the stable Debian GNU/Linux 2.2. We recommend that you upgrade your gftp package.
